[TheForge] BANDSAWS?

Thu Dec 5 12:35:04 2002

Speaking of bandsaws....

I've got an old Sears unit that throws the rubber off the drive wheel.  Do
any of you know why?

I think I have it adjusted right and it worked ok until recently.  Is the
rubber just worn out or is there something I can do to keep it on?  -
silicone?  It seems to be very oily.

Also -

Have any of you tried to adapt one of these to make it a verticle saw.  This
one will not open past 45 degrees.
